  • Brilliant, just brilliant.

    It's stories like these that make me wonder why I bother to write. I could never get anything to come out like this.

    *bows* we're not worthy, we're not worthy....

  • i wanna cry now.
    partly coz i cant write a good review right now to save my life, but this...
    Cry
    theres something poetic and descriptive about your ramblings, ripples. i love the usage of bury me in black lyrics, which is a cacophony in terms of the music, but absolutely beautiful with its words. kinda like this.
    love you.
    you rock my frerard soul.

  • Ugh..........I don't even know what to say.
    That happens every time I read something you wrote. You leave me speechless. You really make me feel for the character(s).

    I absolutely loved this. It was so amazing and so beautiful.
    It would be awesome as a Chaptered fic but it's just as awesome as a one-shot.

    I adore how bitter it was but how you still managed to convey Gerard's beauty and how Frank felt about and around him so well. All the 'fuck yous' made that story just that little bit better because you really got how angry he was and how much he regretted walking away from him.

    It's just so sad that he could have been saved and loved but he gave it up and what's worse is that he knows it. I really liked how Frank said that the reader wasn't worthy of hearing about Gerard. For some reason that hit me pretty hard.

    Ugh I don't even know what I'm talking about. This is the third time I've tried to post this so I'm kinda rambling.

    I loved it. Gorgeous.

  • That was...amazing. I don't know, it's hard to explain.

    The anonymity of the story added to the romantic factor. The crude sexual references didn't take away from that because they were executed in such a way that they came off as sweet - even if they didn't sound sweet - because it was like the protagonist was trying to act like a grown up even though he was real vulnerable.
    I would say that it would be slightly better if you took your time over it more. Described smells and textures particularly but also more of the other senses. Not overly so but just enough to linger on their meetings so that they come off as more impacting. They obviously made a big impact on the protagonist but that doesn't translate to the reader as well as it could.

    I love the poetic balance in this. The contrast between crude and sweet in his thoughts, between poetry and practicality in the writing style and so on.

    It really is gorgeous.

  • "I want to save your heart...", he told me softly.

    "Well...you can't. I don't have one...", I lied, even as it now screamed out to him, brutally held hostage behind my hard ribs.

    I left him there alone that night, just like the one that had gone before, sitting forlornly on that bench.

    I tell a lie.

    As much as I wanted to, I didn't leave him there alone. I left my heart there with him, just in case he was telling the truth about wanting to save it.

    I still drive past there every day, twice a day, but I haven't seen either of them since.

    And it's been nearly a year. A whole fucking year.

    So fuck you.


    Just cause I've been a total sap lately,
    I cried as I read the ending.
    There is nothing worse in this world than the knowledge
    of something that could have happened and been beautiful
    and it never came to be because you turned your back on it.

    I love your ramblings, even more so when I'm this crappy mood. XD
    I love how in telling the story about him he actually told everything about himself.
    And also his 'fuck you's, all that bitterness because of that one missed moment.
    He was noticed, could have been loved, and he walked out on it.

    See? PMS just kicked in. x]

    ILY bunches R. :arms:

  • I give a shit... :] Good story :]
    January 15th, 2008 at 03:18pm
  • As the dictionary definition of an ice queen,
    the fact that this made me start to cry was...
    wow.
    You should make this into a story,
    right alongside Fuel This Flame.
    It would be just as good.

  • *While picking up pieces of heart off of keyboard*
    Wow! That was intense.. It was so much colder than what you usually write. Well, I mean I guess your other one-shot was pretty dark, too. You're just too good...

    I loved it! The whole 'fuck you' thing seemed very Frank. It was perfect.
    I, too, believe that Gee Gee was an angel. How Frank just felt that it would be wrong to hurt him and fuck him... how it seemed like a slight to God. but that's just me... and a few others on here. haha

    so! I have to get my super glue out now... </3 =]

  • Gritty.

    I like it. Perfect as a one-shot, nice little snapshot of pain and anger. Hope that doesn't mean you felt that as you wrote it.

    I like the way it feels like he's talking to someone, to me it felt like a huge monologue to a psychiatrist or something after he'd been caught OD'd or something.

    Or something.

    I actually saw this story in front of me. Trippy.

    Amazing.

  • fucking fantasic!
    you cant just leave this as a one-shot! it'll be a crime against humanity it's just to good!
    January 14th, 2008 at 08:41pm
  • i loved it :D
    January 14th, 2008 at 07:30pm
  • Amazing.

    I'm glad I clicked the story even though it wasn't slash.

    Just amazing & so deep.
    January 14th, 2008 at 07:25pm
  • I loved it! You should carry it on. Oh go on.

  • 'I still drive past there every day, twice a day, but I haven't seen either of them since.'

    Fuck you Ripley, fuck you...

    I never fucking cry...never...i'm the dictionary definition of a heartless bitch...

    but that line...that one god dam line got me....

    It was brilliant...if this is what comes out of your mind at 3 am you should definitly stay up more often....

    I loved the way it's written...honestly and how you showed just how that one moment that they had seemed to change Frank....

    That he had that much of an effect on him, on who he was, it was brilliant how you get that across and also even though he is gone Frank still for lack of a better word 'defends' him...

    That really made it even better...

    *applauds* more than happy that i checked mibba before going to bed now...

  • Wow.
    Just fucking... wow.
    I don't know what to say.
    That was just.. so real?
    I don't know what it was about that.
    But it was amazing.
    Even without slash.
    :tehe:

    But yeah, I loved it.
    I get the feeling that Gerard was an Angel, to be honest.
    Because of what he said in the end, and I think he changed Frank.
    Now, I could be wrong.
    But that's what I got from it.

    Great job, but you always do a great job.

    In Love
